Multiple equilibrium solutions of aircraft motion equation are investigated using non-gradient based numerical methods and computation of attainable equilibrium sets. The proposed approach may be applied to realistic ...

An active flutter suppression using linear saturated control is investigated for a 2dof wing section with nonlinear torsional stiffness and limited deflection amplitude of its single control effector. The suppression of ...

This paper considers an approach to detect unreported pipe bursts in water distribution systems via active identification procedure. The approach involves carrying out an e-FAVOR test; results of the test are used together ...

The leakage reduction problem as a whole is complex and requires co-ordinated
actions in different areas of water network management, such as: direct detection and
repair of existing bursts, general pipe rehabilitation ...

A five-degree-of-freedom dynamic wind tunnel rig is used in the observation of large amplitude self-sustaining pitch oscillations of a model aircraft. These oscillations arise during a quasi-steady ramp input to the aircraft ...

A new Chebyshev spectral element method has been developed in this paper, in which exact quadratures are used to overcome a shortfall of the Gauss–Chebyshev quadrature in variational spectral element projections. The method ...

In this paper a method is proposed for combined energy and pressure management
via integration and coordination of pump scheduling with pressure control aspects.
The proposed solution involves: formulation of an optimisation ...

An active control approach to air vehicle design can significantly expand the flight envelope and improve vehicle
